Download or read book Butterfly on a Pin written by Alannah Hill and published by Hardie Grant Publishing. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Raw and real and funny and sad – I could not put this book down' – Jane Kennedy 'You might expect fluff and fashion ... what you get is harrowing, full-strength, funny and deeply satisfying' – Zoë Foster Blake Unflinching, funny, shocking, inspiring and tender: this is a story like no other. Alannah Hill, one of Australia’s most successful fashion designers, created an international fashion brand that defied trends with ornamental, sophisticated elegance, beads, bows and vintage florals. But growing up in a milk bar in Tasmania, Alannah’s childhood was one of hardship, fear and abuse. At an early age she ran away from home with eight suitcases of costumes and a fierce determination to succeed, haunted by her mother’s refrain of ‘You’ll never amount to anything, you can’t sew, nobody likes you and you’re going to end up in a shallow grave, dear!’ At the height of her success, Alannah walked the razor’s edge between two identities – the ‘good’ Alannah and the ‘mongrel bastard’ Alannah. Who was the real Alannah Hill? Reprieve came in the form of a baby boy and the realisation that becoming a mother not only changes your life, but completely refurbishes it, forever. Yet 'having it all' turned out to be another illusion. In 2013 Alannah walked away from her eponymous brand, a departure that left her coming apart at the seams. She slowly came to understand the only way she could move forward was to go back. At the heart of it all was her mother, whose loveless marriage and disappointment in life had a powerful and long-lasting effect on her daughter. It was finally time to call a truce with the past. This extraordinary book is the fierce and intelligent account of how a freckle-faced teenage runaway metamorphosed into a trailblazer and true original.

Book excerpt: Motivated by the need for her children to have a healthy, stable, parent, author Alannah Dore broke through the despair of post-natal depression and the collapse of her immune system to find healing and ongoing empowerment through self-parenting on all levels. Now she recounts her journey in The Search, sharing the three habits that led her from symptoms of physical, emotional, and mental pain to holistic happiness. To succeed, it was critical for her to determine exactly what choices she needed to make in her own life. Her first momentous, life-changing choice was made when she was collapsed on her living room floor. She had just received the devastating news from her doctors that she would never get better. Even so, she was determined to find a way to improve her physical and emotional health, a decision that lead her to develop a personalized, nurturing and healing collection of strategies, that became a self-parenting system. Alannah explains that in order to achieve Holistic Happiness or true overall happiness, we must learn to care for ourselves emotionally and physically, in the same way we would effectively care for a child. The Search shares her foundation techniques for self-parenting, demonstrating how we can create miracles for health, better relationships, better parenting, and healing in order to triumph with humour and gentleness.
